I tried running Lighttpd instead of Apache on one of my static servers but Flash seems to ignore crossdomain.xml. Has anyone else had a problem with Lighttpd/Flash loading crossdomain.xml? As soon as I switch back to Apache, it works great.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Wow, that’s spooky! Realistically, if the XML takes effect in Apache, that pretty much rules out everything but lighty configuration. I have no real idea where to start, but have you tried looking into what handler Lighty invokes on xml files on your installation?

@ahmednuaman: Only when apache is running. Lighty fails to work.

@sekasi: hmm, i’ll have to look into that. This server’s only job is to serve up xml files so it’s kinda frustrating that I can’t use lighty. I’ll update this thread if I solve this. Let me know if you have any other ideas.

Thanks
